At this moment, Jin Zhanting happened to see her and happily waved, "Tang Ran, you're here. Come in quickly."
Hearing this, Jin Jingchen turned his head to look at her in surprise. When he saw the medicine box she was carrying, he blurted out, "Why are you here?"
"I asked Tang Ran to come," Jin Zhanting said before Tang Ran could reply. "Jingchen, don't misunderstand. Tang Ran isn't here because of you. I asked her to come for acupuncture. My head has been hurting these past few days, and Yin Xi specifically recommended her, saying her acupuncture skills have been progressing by leaps and bounds recently."
Jin Jingchen stared intently at Tang Ran. Tang Ran politely nodded slightly at him, saying nothing. Instead, she walked over to Jin Zhanting and asked, "Uncle Jin, should I administer the needles here, or should we go to your room?"
"Here is fine," Jin Zhanting replied with a smile.
At this moment, Butler Zheng's voice came from the foyer, "Second Young Master, Doctor Xia is here."
Jin Jingchen's face darkened. He remained silent, activated his wheelchair, and glided towards the elevator.
In the afternoon after school, Yin Xi picked up the three children, had dinner, and then drove towards Qimeng Magic Cube. It was Wednesday, and Shuosuo had to attend remedial classes. She had remembered this. With the magic cube competition less than a month away, it was a crucial period, and she couldn't let her child miss a single class.
Upon arriving at Qimeng, Yin Xi handed Shuosuo over to Jin Jingchen and then sat on the sofa in his office to wait. She thought about Tang Ran going to the Jin family that afternoon and wondered how things were going. So, she took out her phone and chatted with Tang Ran via WeChat.
Jin Zhanting was not seriously ill, just a bit overworked lately, and the headaches were caused by poor sleep. A course of acupuncture should bring improvement. However, when she learned that the doctor administering acupuncture to Jin Jingchen had also gone at that time, her lips curved upwards. It seemed that Old Master Jin had deliberately arranged for Tang Ran to go at that time to make a point to Jin Jingchen.
Yin Xi finally sent a message to Tang Ran. "Okay. I understand. For the next week, you don't need to go to the main pharmacy in the afternoon. If needed, you can stay at the Jin family's for a while longer and cure Old Master Jin's headaches as soon as possible."
When school ended, Yin Xi saw that Jin Jingchen was in pretty good spirits. Compared to a few days ago, there were more smiles on his face. As Jin Jingchen was telling her about what he learned that day and his homework, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Enter," Jin Jingchen said, looking towards the door.
At this moment, Teacher Su pushed the door open. Yin Xi saw Qin Si Ye holding Chen Chen and Yan Yan standing behind her and was startled. How did they find this place? Teacher Su glanced meaningfully at Yin Xi and then said to Jin Jingchen, "Principal Jin, this gentleman says he's here to pick up Miss Yin and the child Shen Shuo."
"Okay. You can go," Jin Jingchen said, unable to hide his surprise. He then greeted Qin Si Ye, "Mr. Qin, hello! Thank you for saving me last time; I've been meaning to..."
"No need," Qin Si Ye interrupted him suddenly and looked at Yin Xi. "You don't need to thank me, nor do you need to keep it in mind. I wasn't going to save you in the first place." The implication was that Yin Xi was merely someone he happened to bring along.
Upon hearing this, Shuo Shuo ran to Qin Si Ye in surprise and asked, tilting his head, "Daddy, so it was you who saved Teacher Jin. And that bad man who hurt Teacher Jin, did you catch him too?"
Qin Si Ye's lips curved upwards. He bent down and patted Shuoshuo's little head, replying, "Yes."
"Daddy, you're so mighty," Shuo Shuo said, looking at him with curiosity. "You said you weren't originally going to save Teacher Jin, so who was it?"
Yin Xi immediately stepped forward and held his little hand, saying, "No one. Just a business friend of Daddy's."
